Specialist maternity photographer in Guildford offering relaxed, natural and creative photoshoots for expecting mothers. Emily creates comfortable studio or location sessions to celebrate your bump.
If you’re looking for a maternity photographer in Guildford who specialises in authentic, heartfelt maternity photography, Picture Purple Photography is built around that exact focus. Emily combines a lifetime of photographic skill with a warm, family‑focused approach to create relaxed, natural and creative maternity photos that celebrate this extraordinary time in your life. She positions herself as a specialist in maternity photography — attentive to light, composition and the emotional moments that make pregnancy photography so meaningful. Emily’s background — seven years at Kodak and 14 years in forensic photography — means technical excellence comes as standard. That experience gives her an edge in capture and careful post‑production, allowing her to concentrate on the creative, bespoke imagery she loves to make. The result is a collection of maternity photos that feel genuine and beautiful rather than staged; images that show how you felt in the moment as much as how you looked. Sessions are relaxed and client‑centred. Whether you prefer a quiet Guildford studio shoot, a soft lifestyle session on location around Surrey, or a combination that includes your partner and family, Emily works patiently to put you at ease. She understands camera‑shy clients and gently guides poses so you look and feel natural — focusing on flattering light, body lines and the small details that tell your story, like hands on a bump, a laughing glance, or a quiet connection with a partner. As a parent herself, Emily values comfort and safety, and she creates a friendly atmosphere where clients can relax and enjoy the experience. She listens first — learning what matters to you — and tailors each maternity photoshoot to reflect your personality and style. The aim is simple: capture images you’ll treasure, showing the beauty and emotion of pregnancy in an honest, artful way. If you want a specialist maternity photographer in Guildford who blends technical skill with a compassionate, creative touch, Picture Purple Photography offers maternity photoshoots that feel personal and timeless.
